Not that far off what I'd expect.
You could try putting it into Webuyanycar or similar and see what they come up with but bear in mind they'll try and reduce the initial price for each and every blemish they can find.

Looks fair to me JF. There are a lot of 07 - 09 cars available now. We must be realistic. 10MY (Sept 09) TD4 HSE Auto in Stornoway Grey (Now Gone)

All of which make little or no difference when trading it in at a dealer, though FSH with main dealer stamps will, especially if it the servicing dealer that is making the offer

I have had a CAP valuation done, Trade in clean £13,250 - £14,150.
Trade in average £12,400 - £13,200.
Trade in below £11,500 - £12,250.

CAP Dealer retail is £16.150 - £17,650.
Mercedes offerded me £13,500 towards a 25k C Class estate.

had a test drive in the RRS, nice car but to bloody big! If I do decide to sell my FL2 I will advertise it on the forum first. I have just spent £1,500 on its 6th service and had a new steering rack and pas pump fitted,brake fluid was also changed.

I have an open case with LR Customer services regarding my PAS rack and pump, so far they have kindly contributed £450, this however is an on-going issue with LR, I will pass on my findings and final result to you all soon. 2014 Audi A4 Avant - Dont like it !

If the car is unmarked as you described low miles & is not giving you any problems, as it's a HSE (very nice spec) keep the car & spend the money on nice holidays & the family & tell Stratstones to go & whistle Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Bali Blue

my old 2011MY bali blue in SD4 HSE spec is currently up for sale at £22K so i'm guessing dealer would have paid no more than £17K - 18K for it, in my eyes that offer they made you isn't bad. With the add-ons you have got I would take them off and sell them privately unless you can sell the whole car privately as any potential buyer would see them as a bonus and may pay slightly more than the norm to have them on a FL2.

That price does sound about right. When I sold my 56 plate HSE TD4 with 64000 miles on it in November last year, I was offered £9800 in PX.

That was purely because of its age, the dealer network I was talking to had a policy of sending to auction any car over 6 years old, so the price reflected this.

But I got £13750 private, but mine was one of the best examples around.

Bare in mind, that most LR dealers work in a £3000 gross margin, so if your dealer offered £12500, they would be looking to put in on the forecourt for approx £15500.

Sell it privately. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

I agree with the figures you have quoted, especially the 3k gross margin.LR want to buy cars at the lowest value and sell them at the highest value.
If I do decide to sell I will sell it private, like yours my car is in fantastic condition 2014 Audi A4 Avant - Dont like it !

Don't forget, it is not just about condition with Land Rovers, you need to make them stand out from the crowd.

The guy that bought mine had a private plate, so as mine was fully face lifted, it looked like he had a lot newer car than he actually did. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........
